PREFACE. 

The only excuse for the following records is the desire 
that they might be of use to others, and that the labor of 
gathering them be not wasted by no use being made of 
them. 

I collected them in the search I made for my ancestry. 
In a few years many who gave me information will have 
passed over. There are errors I have no doubt. In some 
cases family and town records did riot agree. Many 
people live and die who do not know when and where 
they were born, cannot tell the names of their grand- 
parents or the maiden name of their mother or grand- 
mothers. Few families think it of sufficient importance 
to keep a correct record made at the time events tran- 
spire, but trust to memory. 

In preparing this work large quantities of land and 
probate court records were copied, and many items of in- 
terest that might have been printed in a subscription work 
are here omitted. I take pleasure in acknowledging the 
great assistance I received from Jacob Meek Lewis (57-1) 
and Mrs. Salome A. (Ward) Lewis (978) was particularly 
helpful by her interest and knowledge of family history, 
without whose aid much would not appear here. 

I have received many inquiries as to my connection 
with this family. As my name does not appear elsewhere, 
I will state that I descend from William Lewis (1), men- 
tioned on pages 1 and 3 ; John Lewis (2) and wife Han- 
nah, of Lancaster and Dorchester, Mass. ; John Lewis 
(3) of Dorchester, and Ann (Whiting) Eaton, daughter 
of Nathaniel and Hannah (D wight) Whiting of Dedham, 
Mass. ; Jonathan Lewis (4) of Dedham and Abigail

EDMUND LEWIS OF LYNN, AND SOME OF HIS 

DESCENDANTS. 



BY GEORGE HARLAN LEWIS OF LOS ANGELES, CAL. 



Edmund Lewis, who came to this country and first set- 
tled in Watertown, is said to have come from Lynn Regis 
(King's Lynn), England, but there is no record of him 
or any of his family on the church registers there. Alonzo 
Lewis, in his history of Lynn (second edition), states that 
he was a brother of William Lewis, who was at Roxbury 
in 1630, and was a founder of Lancaster, Mass., in 1653, 
who descended from a good Welsh family, with a pedigree 
running back centuries. (Some Welsh pedigrees run 
back to Noah.) Where Lewis obtained his information 
is not at my command. I have searched the records of 
this colony and visited England and Wales, used the libra- 
ry of the British Museum, and consulted the records of 
Somerset House and Fetter Lane, London, without suc- 
cess. Alonzo Lewis has his pedigree upon his monument 
in the Western Buryicg Ground, Lynn, running from Wil- 
liam, through Isaac, his son, who died childless. In point 
of fact, Alonzo Lewis was descended from Isaac, son of 
John, of Charlestown and Maiden. If Alonzo Lewis had 
stated his Welsh pedigree, giving the name of the Welsh 
ancestor, or the place from which he emigrated, it might 
have been traced. 

There is no authoritative connection of any of the Lewis 
immigrants to New England, during the 17th century, 
with any Welsh or English family. Without knowing his 
English home, it is impossible to trace a Welshman. It 
was not until the middle of the 16th century that the 
prominent families of Wales begun to adopt the surname 
as used by the English. They then took the name of the 
father, and William ap Lewis became William Lewis; 



2 EDMUND LEWIS OP LYNN, 

Lewis ap Edward became Lewis Edwards; Thomas ap 
Richard became Thomas Prichard or Richards ; John ap 
Robert became John Probert or Roberts ; John ab Owen 
became John Bowen ; John ap Evan became Bevan or 
Evans ; John ap Harry became Parry, — and so on through 
the whole list. 

The name of Lewis was as popular in Wales as Wash- 
ington and Franklin in this country. It was adopted as 
the English form for Llewellyn, who was the last ruling 
prince in Wales, and was killed in 1282, and whose head 
hung over the entrance to the Tower of London, after hav- 
ing been paraded through the streets as a warning to others 
who might rebel. Nearly every Welsh family had a son 
Lewis, and when the surname was adopted there were 
many Lewises. 

But this did not take place universally at any given 
time, for at the beginning of the 19th century not half the 
people had surnames, and to-day in some of the northern 
parts of Wales the old ap or ab is used between father 
and child. Edmund might have been the first to adopt the 
surname, and his father may have been Lewis ap John, or 
some other name, therefore it is impossible to trace the 
ancestry in Wales without knowing the place of nativity 
and parents names, and even then it cannot be done with 
certainty. 

All coats of arms are without authority for the same 
reasons. Ion Lewis, son of Alonzo, states in his biograph- 
ical sketch of his father, that they descended from the 
family in Glamorgan. I have been to Cardiff and Green- 
meadow, and inspected the family chart of Henry Lewis, 
M. P., who is the head of the family at this time, and find 
no connection. I have also consulted the printed records 
of the family and find none. The parish registers do not 
run back earlier than 1725, therefore all recorded connec- 
tion is impossible. When a member of the family emi- 
grated from England his record was discontinued, and no 
entry was made even if the family knew where the indi- 
vidual had gone. 

That the Lewises came from a good family cannot be 
doubted. Thomas Lewis, who was the first, came to Saco 



AlTD SOME OF HIS DESCENDANTS. 3 

in 1628, and was an educated man of means, or he could 
not have obtained the grant which he did. Philip Lewis 

of Greenland (Portsmouth), 1650, was a relative of 

Tucker, of Cleaves and Tucker. Wilham Lewis of Rox- 
bury was probably one of the young sons of a numerous 
family, where the eldest son inherited the estates, and the 
other sons had to look elsewhere. He was of an adven- 
turous spirit, and came out when a mere youth, and re- 
turned to England where he may have interested his 
brothers in the colony, and possibly Edmund and John 
were brothers of his, as the similarity of names in the 
families will be noticed. After William's children were 
driven out of Lancaster (1675-6) by the Indians, Isaac is 
found fighting the Indians with John, the son of Edmund, 
and he received £S. 2. 0. from Lynn. (Dodge's Indian 
Wars, p. 371.) Later he is found in Maiden, Chelsea, 
and Charlestown, where John's descendants are living. 

There is no doubt but that Edmimd was brought up by 
the sea. He had a good estate at Watertown, but it 
was away from the water, and he went to Lynn, where he 
found an ideal place, and bought forty acres directly upon 
the seashore. He may have been a sailor, as in his inven- 
tory appears a " cutlas," a weapon used in battle, at close 
quarters, on vessels. He may have bought his land of 
John Wood, as his lands are called " Wood end fields," 
and that end of the town was called " Wood end." In his 
will he mentions John and Thomas as having some prop- 
erty, and is solicitous for the welfare of the five youngest 
children, of whom only James and Nathaniel are recorded 
at Watertown, so the others were born in Lynn, and no 
record made. Whether he had five children younger than 
John, as Savage thinks, or five younger than Thomas, is 
uncertain. Of James I find no certain trace. Nathaniel, 
with his brother Joseph, sailed away to New London, Conn., 
in 1666. ; 

It has been said that Benjamin Lewis of Stratford, 
Conn., who went from New Haven, Conn., in 1670, as one 
of the founders of Wallingford, and later sold out to Dr. 
John Hall and returned to Stratford, was a son of Ed- 
mund. Did he, like Nathaniel and Joseph, sail away, and 



4 EDMUND LEWIS OP LYNN, 

not finding a place at New London, continue until he 
reached New Haven and Stratford ? Did he later, like 
Edmund, leave the inland town for the seashore ? The 
habits of youth are hard to eradicate. Another connec- 
tion may be found in the fact that the names of his chil- 
dren are almost identical with those of Edmund, and some 
of John's, viz.: John, Mary, James, Edmund, Joseph, 
Hannah, Martha, Benjamin and Eunice. John had John, 
Hannah, and Benjamin. This is not positive proof, but is 
strong circumstantial evidence in support of the claim that 
Benjamin was the youngest child of Edmund. I do not 
include him, for want of absolute proof. 

But with Joseph it is quite different, for I consider the 
written proof made over two hundred years ago identify- 
ing Nathaniel with Lynn, and Joseph with Nathaniel at 
Swansea, together with the presence there of their brother 
Thomas, as superior to the uninvestigated theory of Mr. 
Deane, who, in his History of Scituate, assumes that they 
were children of George Lewis of Barnstable. Other 
writers have repeated his statement, save Savage, who re- 
jects it, and Amos Otis, who, in his Barnstable Families, 
throws it out entirely, and states that neither town, colony, 
or church records confirm the statement. 



On April 10, 1634, Edmund Lewis, aged 33 years, his 
wife Mary, aged 32, son John, aged 3, and son Thomas, 
aged I years, embarked in the Elizabeth, William An- 
drews, master, at Ipswich, England. He settled at Water- 
town, Mass., and shared in the first great division of lands. 
His homestead was on what is now the east side of Lex- 
ington street. He was granted land July 25, 1636, lot 2C, 
30 acres in the 1st division ; Feb. 28, 1636-7, lot 82, 5 acres * 
June 16, 1637, lot 61, 5 acres ; April 9, 1638, 6 acres. In 
the book of possessions he held in lands : (1) A Home- 
Btall of 6 acres. (2) One acre of meddowin Rockmeddow. 
(3) Thirty acres of upland being a great Divident in the 
1«* Division, the 25*^ Lott. (4) Five acres of Plowland in 
the further Plaine and the 91 lott. (5) Five acres of med- 
dow in the remote meddows & the 61 lott. (6) A farme of 



AND SOME OF HIS DESCENDANTS. O 

hundred acres of upland. (7) One acre of remote meddow 
by estimation. He was admitted a freeman May 24, 1636, 
and was elected a selectman for the year 1638. Oct. 14, 
1638, he was one of a committee chosen « To lay out the 
farmes as they were ordered, near the Dedham line." 
(Barker's Watertown, p. 4.) Alonzo Lewis' History of 
Lynn says he removed to Lynn in 1639. Bond's Geneal- 
ogies of Watertown says he removed after 1642. He 
buried a child there Nov. 6, 1642; Savage says 1643. He 
had lived near the sea, and when he removed to Lynn he 
settled in the eastern part of the town, on what is now 
Lewis street. He died in January, 1650. His wife died 
Sept. 7, 1658. 

In his will, made the 13, 11th month, 1650, he mentions 
five young children. The date of birth of two of them is 
not recorded, and the name of one of them is not known. 
His will, on file in Essex County Probate Records, Vol. 1, 
f. 119, is as follows : 

« Line the 1^^^ of the 11*^ mo. 1650. Memorandum that 
I Edmund Lewis beinge Sick & Weake, but of perfect re-

8 EDMUND LEWIS OP LYNN, 

2 John Lewis, yeoman, innholder, lieutenant, cap- 
tain, and deacon, was born in England in 1631. He came 
into possession of his father's lands in Wood end fields, 40 
acres fronting on the sea and through which Lewis street 
now passes. At that time the eastern end of Lynn was 
called "Wood end," and the western end, "Breed's end," 
and the locality back of where Samuel Graves settled was 
called "Graves end." For years these names appeared in 
the description of lands given in deeds. 

On the 19, 5mo., 1669, John Lewis of Lynn, yeoman, 
and wife Hannah, sold to Ralph King for X23, four acres 
of upland in Lynn bounded on William King, said Lewis, 
and south by the sea. (Essex Deeds, Vol. 3, f . 95.) In 1699 
he married for his second wife the widow of this Ralph 
King. Nov. 9, 1699, he deeded his lands to his two sons, 
John and Thomas, as follows : — John Lewis, sen. of Lynn, 
yeoman, for £160, to his two sons, John and Thomas, yeo- 
men, in equal halves "all my housing and lands in Lynn, 
viz: a dwelling house where I formerly lived, a barn, 
with 40 acres tillage at Wood End fields, Also a parcel of 
Salt marsh in Rumney Marsh 12 acres." (Essex Deeds, 
Vol. 3. f. 191.) A division of the above was made, June 
5, 1708, *'the dividing line to begin at a flat rock about 
a pole & a half from the back side of John Lewis Jr. 
house and so running easterly on a straight line to a flat 
rock in the field where it has been formerly broke up, so 
from thence South East straight to a stake with a heap of 
stones, thence East to a stake with a heap of stones by the 
ditch that parts said lands formerly of Ezekiel Needham's, 
and all lands South of said line to be John's, and all lands 
North, with the house and barn, till it comes to the brook 
that runs from Collins' fresh meadow, to be Thomas, 
John to have all lands North of said brook, it to be the 
bound betwixt them in that place. As to the Marsh land, 
John to have the Easterly half, and Thomas to have West- 
erly half." (Essex Deeds, Vol. 21, f. 50.) 

John Lewis was a lieutenant under Capt. Henchman in 
King Philip's War, and received XI. 14. 3. Aug. 20, 
1675. He was granted land at Souhegan West, now 
Amherst, N. H., for his services, which his grandson, Ed- 



AND SOME OF HIS DESCENDANTS. 9 

mund, secured in 1728. (Bodge's King Philip's War, p. 
422.) He was paid £1. 16. 0. June 24, 1676, for services 
in Capt. Nick Manning's Co. (N. E. Hist. Gen. Register, 
Vol. 42, p. 95.) He was made a freeman, April 18, 1691, 
and was then called *' lieutenant." (N. E. Hist. Gen. 
Register, Vol. 6, p. 352.) He was elected a deacon in 
the church at a town meeting held January 8, 1692 : — 
"That Lieut. Lewis & Lieut. Fuller should sit at table." 
He kept a tavern in the eastern part of Saugus, known as 
the " Blue Anchor," probably being the successor of his 
father in law, Capt. Thomas Marshall, who died in 1683. 
This inn was later kept by his son Thomas (9) and grand- 
son John (41), and is mentioned by travellers of that day.* 

Madam Knight in her Diary also mentions this tavern. 

He died in 1710, at the age of 79 years. His willf is as 
follows : — 

I John Lewis Sr. of Lynn being of sound understand- 
ing & memory thro the goodness of God, considering the 
frailty of human nature in general and my own age in 
particular, not knowing how soon it may please God to 
take me out of this transitory life and, being desirous of 
making allotment of my outward estate and prevent any 
differences which might otherwise arise after ray death 
between my wife and my children, do make this my 
last Will and Testament as followeth [commits his soul 
to God, and his body to the earth]. And as for that 
outward estate which God in his goodness hath lent unto 
me, I do dispose of it as hereafter is expressed. For as 
much as I have formerly done for my children what I judge 
meet, and sufficient and am now desirous according to my 
duty and ability to provide for y® comfortable livelyhood 
and subsistance of my now wife after my decease, if it be 
the pleasure of God that she outlive me, 1 do therefore 
give unto my said wife, Sarah Lewis, and my Will is that 
she shall receive, have and enjoy to her own absolute use 
and disposal, my whole Estate not formerly by me other-

3. Thomas Lewis, born in England in 1633, removed 
from Lynn to Northampton in 1661-1662, where he had a 
home lot of four acres, which he sold to Matthew Clesson 
in 1667. He was chosen to assist in building a mill, 
27, 6 mo., 1666. He removed from there to Swansea, where, 
at a town meeting held Dec. 1, 1669, " Thomas Lewis was 
admitted inhabitant and member of this township, and to 
have a twelve acre lot where any two of the Com'te for 
admission of inhabitants shall approve of his settlement." 
At a town meeting held Feb. 9, 1670, it was ordered that 
all lots and divisions of land thereafter be granted accord- 
ing to the three-fold rank, by the selectmen. First rank, 
three acres ; second rank, two acres ; and third rank, one. 
Thomas Lewis was in the second rank. He was elected a 
selectman, May 21, 1672. He is mentioned at Bristol, R. I., 
as early as 1681, and was taxed at Mendon, Mass., in 
1691, 1692 and 1693. He was elected a selectman. May 
1, 1693, for the year, but declined to serve. The follow- 
ing is taken from the Annals of Mendon, p. 129, where it 
is used as a model for the peaceful settlement of a land 
dispute. 

" Know all men by these Presents that I Thomas Lewis 
of Bristol, Doe Constitute and Appoint ray well beloved

In 1696, he was called of Mendon, with wife Hannah. 
In 1692, Thomas Lewis of Bristol, R. I., sold land to Capt. 
John Andrews. He also sold land there in 1701. In the 
Book of Possessions of Swansea his lands are recorded on 
page 9, and in the various proceedings of the town his 
name appears in regard to lands. On Dec. 23, 1704, he, 
with his wife Hannah, executed a deed of gift for good 
will and affection, of the " north part of my dwelling 
house in Bristol," to his daughter, Hepzebah Lewis. (Bris- 
tol Co. Deeds, Vol. 4, p. 319.)

tol Co. Probate Records, Vol. 2, f . 257 : " In the name of

most half of those two acre lot with ye barn and house

came inhabitants. 

At a town meeting, Dec. 1, 1669, " Nathaniel Lewis is 
admitted townsman, and is to have a 12 acre lot where it 
may be Judged Convenient." He was of the 3d rank Feb. 
7, 1670. In the Book of Possessions his lands are record- 
ed on page 107, except his lot No. 85 in the sheep pasture, 
alias Towoset Neck, which is recorded by a mistake with 
his brother Joseph's lands on page 53. He married Mary

Nathaniel, he sailed along the coast, and was at New Lon- 
don, Conn., on Dec. 2, 1667, where they were transient 
residents and taxed £2. 3s. 9d. for the minister's rate. 
(New London, Ct, Records.) He removed to Swansea 
with his brothers, Thomas and Nathaniel, and became an 
inhabitant, and was granted land in the third rank, Feb. 
7, 1670. At town meeting 9th, 12 mo., 1671, he was elect- 
ed to assist the committee to " lay out the lands recently 
purchased at Metapoisett. " His lands are recorded in the 
Book of Possessions on pages 53 and 54, and with them 
are recorded part of the lands of his brother Nathaniel 
(5) on page 53 by a mistake made at that time. The fol- 
lowing certificate is self-explanatory.

♦♦ Nathaniel Lewis his land in the Sheep pasture alis 
Towoset Neck by a mistake were Recorded in page 53 
with his Brother Joseph's Lands." 

I hereby certify that the above is a true copy of the 
record as it appears on page 107 of the original '' Propri- 
etors Records " in the town of Swansea.

[Seal of the Town of Swansea.] 

There has been considerable discussion as to who were 
the parents of this Joseph Lewis. Mr. Deane's Scituate 
and Mr. Shepherd in the N. E. Hist. Gen. Register state 
that he was a son of George of Barnstable. There ap- 
pears to be no foundation for such statement, as George 
had no son by that name, as is shown by Otis' Barnstable 
Famihes. There is ample evidence 4;hat Nathaniel was 
from Lynn, and the above is evidence that his brother 
Joseph was with him. 

There is a tradition that Joseph Lewis was the first 
white man slain in King Philip's War. He was killed at 
Swansea, June 24, 1675. (Podge's King Philip's War, p. 
463.) A list of the slain reported by the clerk of the 
town at the time is : Joseph Lewis, Robert Jones, John 
Jones,* Nehemiah Allen, William Cohun, John Salisbury, 

♦The Joneses were relatives of Mrs. Joseph Lewis. The deaths 
probably occurred in the order named. 



16 EDMUND LEWIS OF LYNN, 

William Salisbury, John Hall. (Plymouth Colonial 
Records. ) 

" As the inhabitants of Swansea were returning from 
public worship, a number of Indians who lay in ambus- 
cade, fired upon them, killed one of their company and 
wounded another. They next intercepted and killed two 
men, who were sent for a surgeon. The same night they 
entered the town of Swansea and murdered six men." 
(Hannah Adams' N. E. History, p. 120.) 

" In the afternoon of June 24, 1675, being a fast day 
at Swansea, people were coming from Public Worship the 
Indians attacked them, killed one and wounded others, 
and killed two men who were going for a Surgeon, beset 
a house in another part of the town and murdered 6 
more." (Hutchinson's History of Mass., Vol. 1, page 261.) 

Joseph Lewis married Mary Jones, June 13, 1671. 
(Swansea Records.) She was the daughter of Robert and 
Anne (Bibble) Jones of Hull. Anne was the daughter of 
John and Sibyll Bibble of Maiden. After the massacre 
Mary returned to Maiden to live with her grandmother. * 
Mary, the widow of Joseph, married, Jan. 11, 1677, at 
Maiden, Obadiah Jenkins. He died in 1720, and his sons 
Joel and Obadiah gave bond April 1, 1720, and were ap- 
pointed administrators of his estate. His wife Mary must 
have died before that time, as she had no share in his 
estate. Their children were : (1) Joel, (2) Mary, (3) 

Annabel, (4) Lydia, (5) Sarah, m. Taylor ; (6) 

Anna, m. Benj. Teal ; (7) Obadiah, m. Mary Grover. 

•The Will of John Bibble (N. E. Hist. Gen. Register, Vol. 9, p. 
306-7) mentions son in law Robert Jones oi Hull, daughter Annie 
and wife Sibyll, and calls himself " of Maldon being now of Hull," 
July 23, 1653. Ann Bibble was a petitioner for a minister to be set- 
tled at Maiden, Oct. 28, 1651, so she must have married Robert Jonei 
between that day and July 1, 1653, when her father made his will. 
Sybil Bibble, widow, married Miles Nutt, and on Oct. 30, 1674, be- 
came the wife of John Doolittle of Maiden, where she lired and died 
Sept. 23, 1690, aged about 82 years. Her will, made at Maiden, Dec. 
25, 1683, proved in 1690, gives " to Obadiah Jenkins and Mary Jen- 
kins his wife and their children, all my housing and lands in Mai- 
den, with all movables, he paying out of it to my grandchildren, 
Robert, Zachery, Benjamin and Rebeccah Jones £5, a piece when 
they become of age. • * • I make my grandson Obadiah Jenkins 
my Executor ol this my last Will."

The following memorandum, filed in Middlesex County 
Probate, file 8876, is interesting proof of the relationship 
of all the parties thereto. 

" Deacon Samuel Howard's mother was sister to the 
deceased* by his mother's side, i. e. : Obadiah\s mother 
before she married his Father— married a Lewis & had 2 
children. Viz :— Joseph and Sibilla, which Sibilla was 
mother to the said Samuel Howard, who claims Joseph 
was father to Benj"^ Lewis, who also claims Sibilla's chil- 
dren are Samuel and Sibella. Joseph's children are Ben- 
jamin, Joseph and Abigail." 

The claims were allowed and settlement made as above. 

7 John Lewis, bom in Lynn, Mar. 30, 1660, was a 
lieutenant, and was made a freeman Apr. 18, 1691. In the 
division of his father's lands he had the south half next 
the sea. He died intestate about a year after his father, 
and his widow Elizabeth was appointed administratrix, 
June 27, 1711. The inventory of his estate, taken July

39 Edmund Lewis, born in Lynn, Dec. 8, 1695, 
was a yeoman. He came into possession of his father's 
lands by purchase of the rights of the other heirs. He 
also obtained possession of most of his uncle Thomas' 
land by purchase from his son John (43). Nov. 10, 1736, 
he also bought of John Lewis (43), tanner, for £600, a 
certain messuage, or tenement, consisting of upland and 
meadow, with one dwelling house and barn, situate in 
Lynn, bounded northerly on land of Nathaniel Ingalls, 
easterly on land of Edmund Lewis (39), and partly on 
Bassett's land, southerly on said Edmmid Lewis' land, and 
westerly on Lynn commons, containing about 20 acres

and barn of Edmund (1) which John (43) inherited from 
his father Thomas (9), who inherited it from John, 
Sen (2). 

Edmund Lewis re-conveyed this property to his brother 
Thomas, the following month, for £250. Together with 
Hannah, his newly married wife, he conveyed to his eldest 
son John, for X19. 18s., "the east end of my Dwelling 
House, and one half my barn, and one half my salt marsh, 
wood and upland," on Dec. 8, 1756 (Essex County Deeds,

Samuel Ingalls was appointed administrator (Essex Co. 
Prob. Rec, file 16,745). The widow's dower was set off 
to her by the court on May 4, 1779, viz. : The west end

being part of a ten acre lot, the total being appraised at 
£870. 6. 8. 

John Lewis, eldest son of said intestate, having received 
as advancement of his father certain real estate fully equal 
to a single share, his heirs desired that only one share be 
set off to them. The estate was divided into seven lots, 
and apportioned to Jonathan Blaney Lewis (148), repre- 
sentative of Nathaniel Lewis, deceased, to Lydia Ingalls, 
Elizabeth Ingalls, Joseph Lewis, Edmund Lewis, Sarah 
Newhall, and to the legal representatives of John, the

43 Jolin Lewis, born in Lynn, Aug. 2, 1687. He 
was an innholder succeeding his father and grandfather. 
Later he became a tanner and owned a tannery on the

in Lynn, and to whom he gave his freedom. The slave 
was brought from Africa when a boy. John Lewis died 
in 1778 at the ripe age of 91 years. Alonzo Lewis says 
he died 1775, aged 92 years, whereas, he was alive in 
1778. (History of Lynn, 2d Edition, p. 215.) In 1720 
he kept the grammar school. (History of Lynn, 2d Ed.

49), late enjoyed by Col. Burrill deceased and conveyed to 
said Lydia, by said Burrill in his will. (Essex Co. Deeds,

his house, bam, outhousing and lands, two weeks before 
his death, and left him the other half if he would pay his 
debts, care for his widow, etc.; which he declined, but the

Mother, and having my note of hand for a sum to make 
her equal to my other daughters, as to her fitting out at 
the time of marriage, and her circumstances in several re- 
spects being so much better than those of my other heirs. 
But I dont do this for want of affection for my dear 
daughter, for whom I bear a great regard. Item I will, 
give & bequeath to my daughter Mary Carnes, and to her 
heirs and assigns, forever, one just and equal third part, 
in all regards of my remaining Estate, which with what I 
have already given to and done for her is her full portion 
in my Estate. 

Item : I will, give and bequeath to my three grand- 
children, Samuel Lewis, Sarah Lewis and Mary Lewis, 
children of my deceased son John Lewis, two just and 
equal third parts of my remaining Estate as aforesaid, 
that is to say, to the said Samuel, Sarah and Mary Lewis 
in just and equal parts, or shares, being one third part of 
the said two thirds of my said Estate to each of them, and 
their respective heirs and assigns forever, and my will 
and pleasure is that my said Grandson Samuel Lewis 
have my Tan house and Tan yard with all the appurte- 
nances & utensils for the Tanning Business belonging, if 
the said Samuel shall choose the same, and receive them 
in part of his interest in my Estate aforesaid, which with

302 Nathaniel Lewis, born in Lynn, Feb. 28, 1799, 
is called junior in the birth records of his children, his 
father being then alive. 

No. 147. Nathaniel, born in 1768, married Rebecca 
(Richards) and died Jan. 21, 1824, and had a son Nathan- 
iel (286), born (May 29), 1799, who d. Dec. 30, 1822. 

No. 150. Nathaniel, also born in 1768, was called jun- 
ior, also married a Rebecca (Clark) and had a son Nathan- 
iel (302), also born in 1799. (Feb. 28.) This continued 
similarity in names and births has led to confusion and 
the descent has been carefully investigated. This explan- 
ation is made to correct an error made by Alonzo Lewis 
in Lynn Records — where he copied them, and it is verified 
by Ex-Mayor Jacob M. Lewis, who knew the families. 

He was a shoemaker and lived in Lynn. He married, 
first, Nov. 11, 1824, Abigail A. Perkins, who died Nov.
